A Coffin Story From Boston.

A year ago last April a firm OF man.
ufacturing undertakers in this vicinity
were given the most extraordinary
commission which they had ever re-
ceived. They were told to make two
mahogany caskets OF a particular de-
sign, to be above the usual size, and
in many parts fully six inches in thick
ness. They were cautioned not to
say word to any one about what
they were doing. The caskets were
made as ordered. 1t required 500
worth OF mahogany to complete them.
When they were ready to be shipped
from the factory a photograph was
taken, and an inkliDg OF the affair
got out in this way. They were taken
from the factory in two two horse
wagons, each one making a heavy
load for a pair OF horses to draw.
Outside cases OF the same material
were also provided. The owner ofthe
caskets had them taken to his estate
and placed in building which he had
erected on purpose. In that building
two OF the best wood carvers to
be obtained have worked on the cask-
cts steadily for the past Ia months,
add they have noMhere near finished
the first one. They were carving into
the mahogany the most wonderful
and intricate designs which you could
imagine, all from sketches furnished
by eminent artists. There is spider
in the centre OF web, so delicate
that ones breath would almost seem
to move it; skulls, from which liie-like
serpants are crawling; owls, hour
glasses and hundred other things
with symbolic meanings. At the rate
the carvers are progressing it will take
several years to finish their work. !
should think $40, 1000 would be low
figure for both caskets. The insides
will contain silken hammocks, in
which the bodies will lie. The gentle
man who is having the caskets made
has purchaced an entire knoll in one
OF the most beautiful OF our GENE.
teries, and, it is said, will spend $685..
900 on the tomb. He is gentleman
connected with the medical profession,
having an office in Boston. His wife,
who takes. if possible, more interest
in the caskets then himself, is said to
be the granddaughter of a baron

| Elevated Railways Of New York.

Elevated Railways OF New York.
New York Letter.
There are 32 miles OF double track
or 81 miles In all in the elevated rail-
way system OF New York. Every day
rack-hands walk over it and another
set walk under it, craning their necks
as they look up any defect in the line.
At 10th street the 9th avenue track
is at points more than go feet high
and the inspectors above have dizzy
walk, while those on the surface crook
their necks out OF shape in gazing up
at the trestle. The ride over this
high section OF the line makes many
nervous persons very timid, but the
track is SO securely guarded with
heavy guard timber that it would be
almost impossible for q train to
leave the rails. In one or two in
stances axles have broken, but no
train has ever left the track. II q
complete derailment should occurr at
10th street, and train should fall
upon the rocks below, few passengers
would survive the accident. The 32
miles OF elevated roads on Manhattan
Island is divided into four lines. As
all roads were said to lead to Rome, so
all l. roads in New York lead to South
Ferry, at the southern end OF the island
There are confusing number OF
cross lines and branches which seem
to head almost anywhere, but plat
form men with strong lungs and pa
thence that knows no wearing out
stand at every junction and tell
people where to go. The sys
tenn carries daily hall q million
passengers. To do this $500 trains
are run, $500 employees kept busy,
$40 cars and 255 locomotives used.
5000 stops made each day by the
trains, and $50 different stations
passed. Each train. which consist OF
four or five coaches and looks as long
and large as passenger train on
surface railroad. will rate on the aver
age $50 persons, but during the busy
hours in the morning and evening they
are crowded to suffocation, and q
train with 800 passengers aboard is no
rarity. Your New York business man
is not q gallant when ladies come
aboard a crowded car, and itrarely oc-
currs that q man arises and gives his
seat to woman.
The trains run at an average speed
OF twelve miles an hour. Two express
trains that stop at few stations run
down from Harlem to South Ferry in
the morning over the 9th avenue line;
the road on the westerly side OF the
city and two similar trains run up at
night.

A lively New York correspondent
says: "Mrs. VIM. X. Vanderbilt Is
the beauty and dasher OF all the Van

had a vim and style undesired, or, at
least, unattained by any other lady
among them. Her toilets, her equip
ages. her diversions have been al
ways new and sometimes strange,
while the others have seemed to
strive for privacy, seclusion and
ouietude. To her is due the concep-
ton ofthis round-the- world splendor."

Says the Cincinnati Enquirer: Mrs
Harper, the wife of the Fidelity Vice
President, was at her home on Fourth
street when she was startled by the
lusty cries OF the newsboys: ARREST
OF Z. L, Harperl" Her woman's heart
took alarm at once, and with:the ut.
most haste she flew to the bank. She
stood before the stern policeman, and
with the tears streaming down her
cheeks begged admittance. No one
could resist. that appeal, and in a
moment she had thrown her arms
about her husbands neck and gave
him the kisses OF constancy and faith
and unchanging love.
